STATEMENT FROM THE PRESIDENT REGARDING NORTH KOREA

Ridge takes aim at Limbaugh
Posted: 05:27 AM ET

Obama responds to North Korea's reported nuclear test
Posted: 08:00 AM ET
The White House issued the following statement from the president early Monday morning:

STATEMENT FROM THE PRESIDENT REGARDING NORTH KOREA

Today, North Korea said that it has conducted a nuclear test in violation of international law. It appears to also have attempted a short range missile launch. These actions, while not a surprise given its statements and actions to date, are a matter of grave concern to all nations. North Korea's attempts to develop nuclear weapons, as well as its ballistic missile program, constitute a threat to international peace and security.

By acting in blatant defiance of the United Nations Security Council, North Korea is directly and recklessly challenging the international community. North Korea's behavior increases tensions and undermines stability in Northeast Asia. Such provocations will only serve to deepen North Korea's isolation. It will not find international acceptance unless it abandons its pursuit of weapons of mass destruction and their means of delivery.

The danger posed by North Korea's threatening activities warrants action by the international community. We have been and will continue working with our allies and partners in the Six-Party Talks as well as other members of the U.N. Security Council in the days ahead.

From CNN Deputy Political Director Paul Steinhauser

WASHINGTON (CNN) – As Colin Powell fires back against Dick Cheney and Rush Limbaugh in the latest skirmish in the battle over the future of the Republican Party, a new national poll indicates that Americans have a much more favorable opinion of Powell than Cheney or Limbaugh.


Security Council condemns N. Korea nuke test
Posted: 05:35 PM ET
